Category:Culture of Japan
Japanese culture developed through the interaction of its indigenous Jōmon culture with various global influences. The initial significant external impact came from Chinese civilization, beginning with the emergence of the Yayoi culture around 300 BC. From the 6th century AD, classical Greek and Indian cultural traditions, synthesized as Greco-Buddhism, influenced Japanese arts and religions, culminating in the introduction of Mahayana Buddhism. Subsequent centuries saw European influence become prominent from the 16th century onward, followed by a predominant American cultural influence after World War II.
Japan has developed a unique original culture in its arts (ikebana, origami, ukiyo-e), crafts (dolls, lacquerware, pottery), performances (bunraku, dance, kabuki, noh, rakugo, kamishibai), and traditions (games, onsen, sentō, tea ceremony, Japanese martial arts), as well as a unique cuisine.
